After these merchants left, the lords or representatives of the territories of the empire came to visit, and unlike the Chamber of Commerce, they did not have permanent personnel in Flying Sky City, so the speed was naturally slower.

"Duke Aslan. You've made a fortune this time. Sanchez took the lead at this time and looked at Aslan with a smile.

"Oops. I didn't expect the young Duke of Sanchez to be here. I thought you'd all gone back. Aslan made the appearance that he had just seen Sanchez.

Sanchez looked at Aslan with a smile and said, "Now there are different disasters happening all over the continent, but why is there nothing going on in your Flying City." ”

"Well. It should be my place in Flying City, okay. Aslan squinted his eyes and said, "However, I don't know what happened to Young Duke Sanchez staying in Feitian City at this time." You shouldn't hurry back to your father's territory and have a good look. ”

Sanchez chuckled and said, "I'm also concerned about our giant deer city at this time, but I can't go back empty-handed." So...... I don't know if the city lord of Aslan is willing to buy me some food. ”

"Didn't you bring a lot of food? Why are you selling it to me? Aslan said casually.

"I'm not going to talk nonsense with you. You say you can't sell it to us. Sandil couldn't hold his breath and walked over and said loudly.

Sanchez frowned, of course he needed to take his time at a time like this. Otherwise, maybe this guy will come and open his mouth with a lion.

"Sell, of course sell. But I don't know what price you're willing to give me. You also know that food is very precious now, so ......" Aslan smiled and said nothing.

Sanchez and Sandil looked at each other.

Sandil held out five fingers: "Five." ”

"Hahahaha. Aslan just laughed and didn't speak.

Sanchez frowned, and he said in a deep voice: "Ten times." ”

"The price that the young Duke of Sanchez said satisfies me, but it's still a little lower. But...... I'm not just interested in money now. Aslan whispered, "I don't know what else you can give me." ”

Sanchez thought for a moment, and he said, "I don't know what Lord Aslan needs. ”

"What you have in Julu City, I need it. Aslan said with a smile.

Sanchez muttered, "I'm sorry. I really don't understand what the Aslan City Lord means. ”

"Julu City was once the capital of the Bucks Principality, the largest coastal city in the White Luck Empire, and the largest port in the White Cloud Empire. It is also the only province with a navy outside of the Empire. You say what I want. Aslan's fingers tapped on the table.

"Boat!" Sanchez said, frowning.

Aslan smiled and shook his head.

"Ships!" Sanchez's brow furrowed even thicker.

Aslan's hand slapped on the table, looked directly at Sanchez and said, "As far as I know. At present, your Julu Navy has more than 10 large warships, more than 60 medium-sized warships, and more than 100 small warships. Specialized shipyards six. ”

Sanchez's hand was already clenched into a fist.

"That's the price I'll give you. I'll give you 100 tons for a warship. All the equipment and workers of a shipyard, I give you 1000 tons. ”

"There is only one gallery lake in Flying Sky City, what is the use of you asking for a large warship and shipbuilding equipment, Lord of the City. I can give you medium ships and small ships. Sanchez chuckled.

"I don't need a medium-sized warship. Small warships we can build ourselves. All I need is your large warship. As for what I'm going to do with shipbuilding equipment, that's my business. Young Duke Sanchez, I have already quoted my price. Now it's your turn. Aslan said with a smile.

That's right! Aslan did this not for anything else but for the navy.

Now that the Navy of the Principality of Violet has just been built, it is not enough to have a genius shipbuilder like Sergei, but also a large number of ordinary shipbuilders, and Aslan has found that the combat effectiveness of the ironclad ship is indeed strong, but the cost is too much, and the simple terrifying steel is what Aslan can't afford now.

The mining technology of the entire Zaft continent is very backward, and in the past, with trade, it barely met the needs, but now tanks, ms, have already made the entire Violet Principality steel urgent, if you build a warship of several thousand tons at every turn, it is simply impossible.

Therefore, Aslan decided to learn from each other's strengths, using steel rib and wooden hull ships, and also installing protective armor on key parts of the hull, although the protection force has been reduced a lot, but the maneuverability has been doubled, and the cost has been more than doubled.

Although the use of the navy on this continent is not very large, what Aslan knows is that the navy is sometimes not necessarily used in warfare, and the same ocean trade, which is also very good, of course, secretly making a cameo appearance as a pirate is also a non-income, thinking that the privateers of Great Britain back then did not know how much wealth was transported back to the empire on which the sun never sets.

Just have these devices

Sanchez thought for a long time, and finally he let go of his fist; "I can give you five large ships." But shipbuilding equipment ......"

"Stop. I have to have shipbuilding equipment. And it was brought back by my warship. Aslan shook his head and said.

"However, your price of 1000 tons ......"

"What's wrong with the price? You have to know that shipbuilding equipment is priceless in the eyes of some people, but in the eyes of others, it is a pile of scrap metal. And at this time, I think 1,000 tons of grain is worth a set of shipbuilding equipment. Aslan said with a smile.

Sanchez closed his eyes and took a deep breath, "Okay. A set of shipbuilding equipment, and two large warships. I want 2,000 tons of grain. I bought 1,000 tons of grain at fifteen times the price. That's my bottom line. ”

Aslan pondered for a moment, and he said to Iverson next to him, "Wait a minute, you go and sign a contract with Young Duke Sanchez." When their things arrived, our food was delivered to them. ”

"Wait, won't you give us food first? Sanchez said loudly.

"Give me food first? No way. Aslan said: "This deal requires you to bring my two large warships and my shipbuilding equipment to the place I designated. There will be 2,000 tons of grain that you want, and you can take it back with the ships that you are travelling with. The location is at the mouth of Gallery Lake. I've calculated that if you trade by sea like this, it's even faster than shipping by road. But please pay attention to the young Duke of Sanchez, and when your things arrive, I will have them carefully inspected. If I have a little less shipbuilding equipment, you don't even want to take a grain of grain. ”

Sanchez finally agreed, which made Aslan laugh, once successful, it would solve the manpower and equipment problems that had plagued the shipyard in the Principality of Violet in one fell swoop.
